A crash has forced the temporary closure of Lyon Road in both directions near Fairfield.
The incident happened Thursday around 10 a.m. after multiple vehicles collided along westbound Interstate 80 south of Cherry Glen Road.
One of those vehicles — a truck — was towing a camping-style trailer. It overturned from the slow lane of the freeway onto the shoulder shared with Lyon Road, forcing a full closure of the surface street.
The slow lane of westbound I-80 was temporarily blocked due to emergency vehicles, but the California Highway Patrol said all lanes of the freeway had re-opened by 11 a.m.
Lyon Road remains closed to traffic while first responders deal with the overturned camper.
